Has anyone installed an air conditioning system in a 1953 Bentley R or Silver Dawn? If so, what parts did you use? ie, compressor, fan belt ect. How about a conversion to an alternator? Thanks. (Message approved by david_gore) | ||

If you fit Air con then modification to alternator would be desirable due to the extra electric load however the dynamo will cope but be getting near its ability ( Dynamos do not like giving max out for extended periods and tend to wear brushes fast ) The compressor to use would be the GM as fitted to the Shadow and other RR cars. Tip when designing the brackets for the compressor get the drive belt first - and pick a common size. The numbers on a belt relate to its section and the circumference of the belt. This job has been done before, so it should be striaght forward. (Message approved by david_gore) |
